Facing an obstructive sword, Bai Yunfei’s galloping body suddenly came to a halt in a strange manner. Under the opponent’s look of disbelief, it leaned backwards then, with his feet being the center, moved in a semicircle like a round object moving in a bowl. When he stood upright again, he was already on the other side of the short sword!
His eyes glittering with coldness, Bai Yunfei swung the dagger in his hand and thrust it at the opponent’s heart resolutely!
It was simply too late for Zhao Ping to withdraw his sword to make a block so he had no choice but to clench his teeth and move aside about an inch. He then let out a painful groan as the dagger penetrated straight into his left shoulder.
Bai Yunfei’s eyes flashed with a hint of disappointment. Casting a quick glance at those men who had now reacted and were charging straight at him, he suddenly lifted his left leg and kicked Zhao Ping in the stomach again.
A deep bang rang out. The dagger was pulled out, creating a trail of blood, and Zhao Ping’s body was shot towards the men who were chasing up like a cannonball. Those men were immediately thrown into disorder.
After sending Zhao Ping flying, Bai Yunfei turned around and rushed out of the door without hesitation.
As soon as he set his foot outside, a back blur suddenly shot out from the shadow beside the door without a warning sign, going straight towards him!
Frightened, Bai Yunfei hurriedly raised his dagger to his chest. At the same time, he changed his footwork, moving away to one side.
That tiny black blur and Bai Yunfei grazed each other. However, it seemingly did not want to attack him at all. When they were passing each other, Bai Yunfei suddenly felt a chill on the back of his right hand, which was being held in front of him. It seemed a small mass of liquid had hit the back of his right hand.
The moment he got out of the hotel, he cast a glance backwards and saw that blur fall to the ground — it was unexpectedly a small gray animal looking like a squirrel.
All the men in the hotel looked on hopelessly as Bai Yunfei disappeared after several dashes. They then looked at their captain and vice captain, both of whom were wounded, and looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what they should do.
Zhao Ping was sitting on the floor with his teeth clenched in a cold sweat. That kick thrown by Bai Yunfei just then had been really powerful. If he was an ordinary man, he would probably have passed out by now.
“He already got away. Why are you still standing there?!Quickly go check Wei Xu over!” Only after a dozen seconds did Zhao Ping take a deep breath and manage to scold in a raised voice.
Seeing his subordinates run over to check Wei Xu out like a swarm of bees, Zhao Ping shook his head in a frustrated manner. He then silently channeled his soulforce to heal the injuries on his body. At the same time, he sighed to himself in his mind.
“Alas… I miscalculated. According to the information obtained earlier, this man was obviously just a late Soul Personage when he killed young master. But now it looks like he’s broken through to the Soul Warrior stage. Having a breakthrough in such a short time, perhaps he was already at the peak of the Soul Personage stage when he killed young master…
“He was so difficult to stall. In the entire fight, I could only thrust my sword out a few times. He simply didn’t give me a chance to draw him into a dogfight. Plus, the move he injured Wei Xu with should have been a soul technique! And that ghost-like body maneuvering skill was a soul technique too! He’s obviously powerful but he wasn’t interested in fighting at all. Though in the end he had a big advantage, he still ran away without hesitation… This man has quite an extraordinary mind too.
“According to our investigation, two months ago he was still a mere commoner. What kind of lucky encounter did he actually have?!
“It will be hard to find him now. After he was tricked and surrounded, we still managed to let him get away. Luckily my ‘tracking gray rat’ has already left a ‘mark’ on him so he won’t be able to escape! Now we only need to wait for master to arrive. Afterwards, we’ll just use the tracking gray rat to find out where he is…
“The tracking gray rat’s saliva is effective for three days. A courier pigeon was already released. Given master’s speed, he should arrive tomorrow evening. That man definitely doesn’t know about this so after running away for a day at most, he’ll relax his vigilance. And then master will have enough time to catch up with him!
“Not bad… Now looks like this is not a complete failure either.”
